This follow up blog post has taken a while to come to fruition, and my apologies for that. I want to tell you that whilst I am yet to try everything which Nicky has sent me I absolutely love what they are doing as a company, in terms of packaging, ingredients and price and the only reason that I haven’t tried everything just yet is that I wanted to use up what I had on the go before trying a new version; this is an important point to make with swapping over to Eco products is that if you pour away everything which you are currently using and throw it all in the bin then you’re not being Eco, quite to opposite in fact, so it’s ok to use up what you have first. 🙂
My decision is firm though, going forward I will be purchasing my cleaning products from Mrs Sparkle’s – they are truly wonderful, smell amazing, are 100% natural and really do clean amazingly too, and as I say the prices are reasonable enough to make them available to all – and for that I 100% salute them as a company. If you are yet to discover them – please do go ahead and check them out at: mrssparkle.co.uk
The other thing is I have treated myself to a glass bottle and spray set to put these reusables in on Amazon for around £10, they are the shape and size of a glass milk bottle and you get one with a spray top and one with a screw top along with a measuring cup which is perfect for this purpose, I then have labelled them using my label-maker so I know what’s inside – once empty they can easily be re-washed in the dishwasher and used again – perfect:
But before we get into all the details of all the stuff here’s my unboxing video…

Here’s a bit about them as a company:
Hi, we are Jay and Nicky and we’re on a mission to make green cleaning easy for everyone. We create natural eco products with beautiful scents and amazing results.
With over 10 years domestic cleaning experience at Mrs Sparkle, we identified a need for natural and eco friendly products at an affordable price for all. This is the basis for our development of Mrs Sparkle’s Natural Products.
For many years we have tried to find solutions to problems such as excessive plastic usage and toxins within some products. Our efforts began with small changes such as using bags made from recycled plastic, diluting cleaning products in reusable plastic bottles and recycling everything possible. However we wanted to go further to help the environment.
We have offered our eco cleaning alternative to our domestic cleaning service from day one, using a combination of ‘big name’ eco products and traditional cleaning methods. However it was clear that some already established eco brands were still not operating in the most sustainable way and and hardly any were using all natural ingredients.
Naturally over time, we have evolved the products to inspire a green cleaning revolution for us. Tried and tested formulas and combinations have been developed alongside innovative designs to reduce plastic usage. These have proven to be an excellent way to maintain a clean and healthy environment for your family while helping the planet too.
Our range has grown into a variety of natural, eco friendly household products filled with bewitching floral scents and robust cleansing powers that will leave any home clean, safe and refreshed. We are now pleased to be able to offer our products online to everyone for delivery nationwide or for free to your doorstep locally in order to share the benefits and simplicity of Mrs Sparkle’s Natural Products.

Product 1: Natural Carpet Freshener – Choice of Scents – 200g {RRP: £4.95)
Here’s what they have to say about it:
Mrs Sparkle’s Natural Carpet Freshener is an amazingly simple way to reinvigorate your carpets and leave a wonderful floral aroma.
Sprinkle a light dusting of the all natural freshener on your carpets, leave for 30 mins or more if possible then vacuum up.
Your carpets will be cleaner and fresher than ever and the beautiful scents from the pure essential oils will fill your room with amazing natural scents.
My Review:
Very similar to good old fashioned Shake’n’Vac (and bring the freshness back – too catchy not too!) but with all natural aromatherapy and herb scent which is just beautiful and packaged in a simple paper bag – honestly what’s not to love?! – it is perfect for freshening up your carpets and rugs before you Hoover.

My Review:
I just love their whole range of dissolvable, what an excellent way to sell waste free cleaning products, and unlike some of the larger companies in the market they are wrapped in simple tissue paper – simple perfection in my book as fully home compostable. I have been so impressed with the cleaning power and the smell – both devine and highly recommended.

It is totally plastic free and zero waste with superb performance with even the smallest amount making it long lasting and great value.
Comes in 2 varieties – Lightly Lemon and Hint of Lavender.
My Review:
This is one of the bottles I am yet to try, for the reason stated above, I am still using up the glass cleaner I have first, but I am excited to try it once I have as it again smells amazing. And I have to say as all of these products have been developed by Eco-domestic cleaners I just trust their expertise. I just want to start a revolution in cleaning products here guys – we need to use these this needs to be the way forward! And if the cat thinks its ok then I think it’s a good sign 😉

My Review:
I love the packaging for these, if you are looking for an eco swap from something you already use then they are great! They smell really nice but in our house this is a bit of a nice-to-have. But whilst I do have them I am loving having them on the back of the toliet to spruce it up in the morning and start the day 🙂
